    Recognize me [Ans: Purushamruga]

    The sculpture pictures something from Indian mythology. Can you recognize the sculpture? :-)

    UPDATE: In Indian mythology this is a creature part human, part animal that resembles Centaurs. Known to worship Hindu God Shiva, the sculpture is often seen in Shiva temples of Southern India.
